ENGLISH AMATEUR WHO IS SHOWING NEW YORK NEW V THINGS IN DRAPERY DANCING. : -.v.-:-: c. . . - . ::. 1 k ft , 1 7 'St 7 LADY CONSTANCE STEWART RICHARDSON. NEW DANGER SEEN English Amateur Appears in Flimsy "Draperies." ACT IS UNCONVENTIONAL Xew. York Interested In " Xovelty, and Grace of Performance Is Admitted Dress Reform Ideas Interesting. NEW YORK. June 22. (Special.) Lady Constance Stewart Richardson, who came over from England recently for the avowed purpose of teaching American women not only how to dance, but how to dress as well, has had her 'first week trying-to please American-amusement seekers. . It can be said that she has succeded in part. Theater-goers seem to appreciate her originality, but the critics say she dances without tho professional finish they had been led to expect. The flim siness of. the draperies, she wears may have something to do with the crowds she is drawing. This is Lady . Constance Stewart Richardson's first really public appear, ance in Gotham. She danced here once before, but that was at a charity entertainment, and - only members of "society" were permitted to buy tickets. Previously, however, she had uo.uv.cu iu r-nsusn music halls and had caused something of a furore. She also danced at a good many houses at which she was a guest and several times ap peared befnrA Tv'Itk- r1.. mi she has appeared at public amusement Rue raies as an amateur.: Her dance is a distinct departure from the conventional. Her attire 'on the stage consists- neither of the diaphanous long skirt affected by one style of dancer, nor the tights of an other prevailing . mode. She wears a filmy series of "draperies," but her legs, arms and n -rtrvri i of her are uncovered. Of the grace of ner movements there is no doubt. Lady Constance, on her arrival in the Lnited States, wore a kimono like gown that she said was the height of comfort, and was made of silk that cost 9 cents a yard. This, as well as her subsequent dancing, aroused deep interest among the married men. Lady Constance said she was going to be an exponent of a new dress reform. She said it was absurd for women to spend so much money for clothes. BRAZILIAN STARTS WEST Trade Envoy to Make Two Stops on Way to Coast.

WILSON TO READ MESSAGE (Continued from First Ps.) ment largely neutralises the advantage of the money issued on them as secur ity, because the banks cannot draw back more from the Government than they have already . invested in the bonds, but where a bank can put up its good assets it is able at all times, with out sacrifice, to secure any additional circulation that the community mav heed and the governing board can be trusted to issue its Treasury notes to me regional reserve banks on terms that will be fair and just. "Tho business interests. I think will welcome this bill as an unalloyed bless ing.

"I feel sure that the Democrat of the Senate and House will rallv to th e support of the bill and I am sanguin v 1 t Photograph by Bain News Service J enough to believe that it will receive a cordial support from Republicans as well." Administration leaders said' tonight they were at a loss to understand how. in view of the urgency with which President Wilson will present the situ ation tomorrow, coupled with the state ment from the Secretary of State to night, "there can be any hesitation on the part of Congress in complying with the President's desires. The currency bill made public last week will be in troduced in both houses and the House banking and currency committee is ex pected to meet early this week to be gin consideration of the measure. Tariff wll be under consideration by the Senate Democratic caucus most of the week. Caucus Fight to Be Feature. The caucus fight on free wool and free sugar will be the important event of the week so far as tariff is con cerned. When the majority members of the committee report on the incomu tax feature of the bill there may be a lively discussion in view of a wide di vergency of views among Democrats as to the basic exemption. The Senate committee has reduced the exemption from J4000 to J3000 for unmarried per sons, but some Senators think it should be still lower. For the first time in many years a real reform in Congressional appropria tions appears to be in sight. - Representative Fitzgerald, of New York, chairman of. the House appropria tions committee, will favor the center ing of appropriations in one committee in a speech Tuesday. A caucus of the House Democrats Wednesday afternoon will . consider a report from a caucus budget committee, including Represent atives Underwood. Fitzgerald, Sherley, Garret and others, favoring a budget committee to supervise and regulate all appropriations and fix a maximum for the session. FRIEDMANI HAS $49,000 DOCTOR'S XET GAINS IN" AMER ICA ESTIMATED. Total Receipts Said to Have Been $05,000, of Which $12,000 AVent to Press Agent. NEW YORK, June 19. It is esti mated that Dr. Friederick Franz Fried mann on sailing, for Germany after a four months' stay in the United States took with him approximately 49.000'as the. gains of his so-called tuberculosis serum. . Dr. M. A. Storni. ' Dr. Frledmann's former assistant, made the figures. He said that Dr, ' Friedmann had received $65,000 in his four months' visit to this country. Of this amount $50,000 came a;! a first payment from Mortiz Eisner, tu.uuu irom patients treated in Provi dence, $3000 from those in the New York institute, and $2000 from a pri vate patient. Of this sum, $12,000 went to the doctor's secretary-press agent. C. Vidal-Hundt, and $6000 to his brother. Dr. A. C. H. Friedmann. leaving approx imately $49,000 to take back to Ger many. Dr. Friedmann said on - board - the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse just before he sailed that he had "fallen into bad hands" in America. He added: "They say that seven of my patients died. What of it? The average is much smaller than any one could ex pect in view of the fact that I treated more than 800 persons." Dr. Friedmann said he was satisfied with two of the three, members of a newspaper commission appointed to in vestigate his treatment in Germany. The third man. Dr. Wolff-Eisner. Dr. Friedmann said, opposed him when he made his memorable speech announcing the cure before the Berlin Medical So ciety on November 8, 1912. For that reason, he said, he did'not think Wolff Eisner could conscientiously serve on the commission. FEDERAL COLUMN IN TRAP Mexican Armored Train - Stranded Between Burned Bridges. -.

Your Money's Worth or Your Money Back OTHER STORES GUBIST FOOD IS iW Present Not so Bad, but Fu ture Has Its Perils. GOOD IDEAS ADMITTED Pig Tongues With Pineapple Sauce Already Here, but Mutton Chops Perfumed AVith Violets Vio late Cauons of Cookery. CHICAGO, Juno 22. (Special.) - Post-impressionistic food the "eats peculiar is the newest in the scram ble among Chicago epicures for some- tniny to please their laded fancies. Somebody brought over the idea from Paris or else developed it after grow ing woozy gazing at the cubist exhi bition two months ago at the art in stitute. At any rate Chicago chefs are throwing up their hands in horror and spilling much language. A ' dapper "chawpie," who wore a Bangkok dyed green, summoned a waiter tonight in a loop hotel and de livered himself of this exordium: ."Bring me crystallized rose leaves and cream cheese." Real Gourmeta Resourceful. That was a new one for some of the patrons who overheard the order, but the supple garcon never batted an eyelash. He brought the order with many genuflections. That was an easy one. The real epicure orders a dinner like this: " ' Clams and lemon marmalade. naked tripe and chafed orange peel. Kllet of mutton with shrimp sauce. Hashed brown potatoes, pomegranate flavor. s Spinach with roquefort cheese dress ing. Currant Jelly and chopped green pep per tarts. Vanilla flavored coffee. Creme yvette and anisette. Perfumed cigarettes. Although they laugh at the futurist cooking, the chefs admit there are many good ideas to be gained by the revolution on foods and the manner of preparing th'em. Some SnK8reBtioiia Accepted. M'sieu Henri Raymond, who manages a kitchen much better than he does the English language,' maintains, with a wealth of gesticulations, that many changes may be made to enhance the succulency of regular foods. For in stance, lie suggests a. drop or two of rum in meat gravies. ' "Ah. we get many of ze. what you say, freak orders," said Arthur Maitre. "A man calls for pig tongues and pine apple sauce. Yes, it Is very fine; and broiled mackerel and cranberry sauce. O-nelet with oysters, oui, excellent; but not zee perfumed food no, no it is bad for zee stomach." The perfumed idea is one of the ex tremes. Chops perfumed with violets, and fried chicken heavy with the per fume of carnations are among the lead ers. Hotel men say it is only a Btep to herring with raspberry jelly, sardines au camembert. and ice cream garnislied with pearl onions. For the vegetarian futurists, parched corn and chopped turnips, or cubically cut raw sweet po tatoes and dill pickles will be favorites.

POWER RULES SUIT JONES AS'aj-hington Senator Pleased AVith Secretary Lane's Action. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 22. Senator Jones, o 'I MORRISON STREET Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Jose, .Phoenix, Arizona; Washington, being asked for his views on the statement by the Secretary of the Interior of the conditions for water power permits said: "Leaving out of consideration any legal questions involved, I- think the Secretary has laid down some good principles to control in the granting of permits for the development of water power. Representative La Follette and I conferred with him the other day regarding the Pen d'Oreille River, and several of these points were suggested by us. The great essential in the de velopment of water power is cheapness to the consumer. Even monopoly is not so objectionable if production of power is stimulated and a cheap rate is fur nished the consumer. "Recognition of the fact that the lo cal public utilities commission is more competent to control Interstate rates than some bureau more than 3000 miles away is wise and in the interest of the people, and the incentive to develop ment and low rates by making the Na tional charge low is a simple and prac tical plan. The provision in regard to monopoly is in line with the amend ment I proposed to the Connecticut River dam bill last session and which was adopted by the Senate." REV. H. P. GOWAN SPEAKS AV. C. A.

' Amendments Made Party Imur. The liquor people are secretly look ing up data in regard to the way the initiative and referendum provision became a part of the state constitution. They have found one point on which they hope to have the amendment cast out by the Supreme Court. In goins over the election returns at the office of the Secretary of State at Lincoln they have found that the constitution al amendment was carried last Kail by counting all straight party votes for the amendments. The number voting "no" against the five amendments sub mitted last Fall far exceeded the num. ber voting specifically "yes," so the liquor people have found. Based on a decision of the Supreme Court in 1901, the straight party votes were counted for the amendments, which had been indorsed by the several parties at the respective.party primaries. Opponents Make DUcrT In other words, in this state, consti tutional amendment resolutions are nominated by the parties at the pri maries. A reversal of this decision is what the HqUor people are seeKIng in order that the adoption of the initia tive and referendum amendment In the state may be declared invalid. This would save the liquor people from the tactics of the Anti-Saloon League for a few years more at least. The attorneys of the liquor inter ests here are at work preparing to en join the Secretary of State from sub mitting propositions under the Initia tive and referendum amendment in 1914. A decision in favor of the liquor people on this question would elimin ate the five constitutional amendments adopted last Fall.
